Hypocrite in Chief: Obama won’t release bin Laden photo; Released U.S. military dead photos
President Barack Obama has chosen not to authorize the release of photos of a dead Osama bin Laden. The Hypocrite in Chief said that he was concerned about offending Muslims but in the past has had no such compunction about his actions doing the same to U.S. military families. In an interview with CBS News, [...]
The United States’ greatest ally is… France?
France certainly is our oldest ally; after all they were instrumental in helping us in our battle for independence more than 230 years ago. But are they are greatest ally today? Given the lack of a backbone exhibited by the country and its leaders and its failure to support U.S. interests, few would think so [...]
Friday funnies – President Obama bows to another king
This week President Barack Obama bowed to Chinese President Hu Jintao. Last April we saw him bow to Saudi King Abdullah. In November he bowed to Japan’s Emperor Akihito.

The most embarassing and humiliating event happened back in April when President Obama bowed to Saudi King Abdullah. Apparently [...]
Eyes forward, Mr. President!
Certainly we have learned that President Barack Obama and his administration are prone to foreign policy gaffes. We have documented them previously (click here) and while in Russia this past week Obama referred to Prime Minister Vladimir Putin as “President”, something that certainly raised the eyebrows of the real Russian president, Dmitry Medvedev. On the [...]
President of the United States bows to King of Saudi Arabia
The continuing foreign policy gaffes of President Obama and his administration just seem to keep coming and are an embarrassment to the United States. Since taking office the Obama team has had a continual string of blunders ranging from rather tasteless and poorly thought out gifts given to foreign dignitaries to breaches of protocol when [...]
Three Big Disagreements With Libertarians

Delving deeper into the LP platform though reveals some oddities that cannot be reconciled in my mind. Here are a [...]
